My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Awarded Best of Zola
Elliot, our photographer for our wedding, was incredible to work with, fast and took amazing photos for us to remember our special day. We did not have much of a “plan” so his help was instrumental in organizing and initiating photo opportunities. We would %100 recommend him to anyone needing a photographer for an event. He has a drone that he uses to take stunning cinematic quality video

From our very first interaction, Anne’s responses were timely, thorough and she provided a sense of calm to all of our questions.On the day of the wedding, she seamlessly blended into the background when needed and she was able to direct people when needed as well! Anne helped keep the day running smoothly. The quality of her work is phenomenal - the photos have a moody, saturated color palette that captures the emotion of the day beautifully.

Emily Kettner Photography

Appleton, WI
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

I love photographing real moments of people in love. With me, I work hard for you to feel comfortable to be yourselves, so that I can capture the most creative, endearing swoon-worthy moments. My style is a mix of candid and editorial, and while I'll make certain to grab those mandatories with fam, the majority of your photos will be captured "moments" — especially between the bridal couple. My editorial-style wedding photography and engagement photos will capture those moments, those details, those looks you gave one another, that you may forget about 20 or 50 years from now, but will be able smile upon when you look at your wedding photos.

Emily is amazing and so reliable! From engagement photos to your wedding day- you will be in excellent hands.

Hailey Stark Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Serves Appleton, WI

I am so dang excited to hear all about your love story! I've always dreamed of being able to stay home and raise my babies but still be able to create the art that burns so passionately in my heart. When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me doing all the mom things. A few of my go-to activities include hiking a new spot, spending the day at my favorite beach, or camping in the pines. Truthfully, I've never said no to an adventure. You could ask me to hop a plane with you next week to the mountains and I would make it happen.

I will never stop recommending Hailey Stark Photography to everyone that I know! I don't even know where to begin. I truly have nothing negative to say about the experiences we have had with Hailey. There is no one else I would rather have had as our wedding photographer. Even with booking Hailey before we were engaged, she was so responsive to ALL of my questions and was always willing to give her expert advice. During both of our engagement sessions as well as on our wedding day, Hailey was able to work magic and take 2 people who are camera shy and give them the space and experience where we had FUN and laughed with her. For once, having pictures taken didn't feel like a chore AND we both loved the photos we received. As we left our first engagement session, my (now) husband and I said to each other that we felt like we had known Hailey for so much longer than the hour that we spent with her. The day of our wedding, Hailey was no less amazing. She was there whenever and wherever needed, even helping me secure my veil when I felt like it was becoming too loose. We haven't received our gallery yet as our wedding was just on 10/12, but I already know that we are going to love our photos because Hailey is so amazing at what she does. If I were to plan a wedding again, there is no doubt in my mind that I would choose Hailey as our photographer every time. I can't wait to have her photograph more of our life's milestone moments in the future!
